Independent tool
Police Pay Calculator is an independent website built to help serving and prospective police officers understand their pay, pension, tax and deductions. It is not an official tool, and it is not run, hosted, sponsored or reviewed by any policing organisation.
No official affiliation
This site is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or officially connected to the National Police Chiefs' Council (NPCC), the Police Federation of England and Wales, the Home Office, the Police Negotiating Board, any individual territorial police force, British Transport Police, or any other government or policing body. All trademarks and organisation names referenced belong to their respective owners and are used only for identification and reference purposes.
Figures are estimates
All pay, tax, pension and deduction figures produced by our calculators are estimates based on publicly available pay scales and HMRC tax rates for the current tax year. They are provided for general guidance only and may differ from your actual pay due to force-specific allowances, historic pay protection, tax code adjustments, or other individual circumstances.
Verify with your payroll department
Before making any financial decisions based on figures from this site — including decisions about pension contributions, budgeting, mortgage applications or career changes — you should always verify the exact figures with your force's payroll or HR department, or your pension scheme administrator.
